Youth discourse on online forums

Abstract

Currently, the Internet belongs to the most popular medium, which largely facilitates all its users to communicate efficiently with each other. Young people often use well-known social networking sites and internet forums, and their existence helps them solve adolescence problems. The language of the young generation is a new and so far little-known phenomenon, especially rarely well understood by older people, so it’s worth learning more about it. The purpose of this article is to attempt to understand and explain slang expressions permanently functioning in the lexical resource of adolescents.
